As a result of increased education and communication, the field of orthodontics has recently been expanded to include a greater number of adult treatment procedures. With this increased demand for adult orthodontic treatment, a problem that frequently arises is the placement of appliances on teeth restored with porcelain. But conventional acid-etching is ineffective in the preparation of porcelain surface for mechanical retention of orthodontic attachments. Also, it is possible to damage on porcelain. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of composite bonding materials and the porcelain surface treatment methods on shear bond strength, and to observe the porcelain fracture rates. To accomplish this purpose, this study was carried out with feldsphatic porcelain, Ceram II. Porcelain surface treatment methods were divided into intact glazed porcelain which had not treatment and surface roughening. Surface roughening by etching with Hydroluoric acid(HF), sandblasting with Microetcher II and compound treatment with etching and sandblasting. Bonding materials were Ortho-two and Transbond. All porcelain specimens were applicated with porcelain primer. 1. In comparision according to porcelain surface treatment, surface roughening groups by HF etching and sandblasting had higher shear bond than intact group. No significant difference was found in Transbond group. 2. Ortho-two group had the higher shear bond strength than that of Transbond group in B:.u etching and sandblasting. 3. E(Transbond. Intact)group had the lowest shear bond strength in all experimental group. The bond strength was higher than clinically successful bond strength. 4. Non-treated group had very higher porcelain rates than treated group. 5. This study indicates that porcelain surface-roughening may not be necessary to attachment of orthodontic brackets to porcelain surfaces.

A hydrogeomechanical numerical model is presented to evaluate rainfall impacts on groundwater flow in slopes and slope stability. This numerical model is developed based on the fully coupled poroelastic governing equations for groundwater flow in deforming variably saturated geologic media and the Galerkin finite element method. A series of numerical experiments using the model developed are then applied to an unsaturated slope under various rainfall rates. The numerical simulation results show that the overall hydromechanical slope stability deteriorates, and the potential failure nay initiate from the slope toe and propagate toward the slope crest as the rainfall rate increases. From the viewpoint of hydrogeology, the pressure head and hence the total hydraulic head increase as the rainfall rate increases. As a result, the groundwater table rises, the unsaturated zone reduces, the seepage face expands from the slope toe toward the slope crest, and the groundwater flow velocity increases along the seepage face. From the viewpoint of geomechanics, the horizontal displacement increases, and the vertical displacement decreases toward the slope toe as the rainfall rate increases. This may result from the buoyancy effect associated with the groundwater table rise as the rainfall rate increases. As a result, the overall deformation intensifies toward the slope toe, and the unstable zone, in which the factor of safety against shear failure is less than 1, becomes thicker near the slope toe and propagates from the slope toe toward the slope crest. The numerical simulation results also suggest that the potential tension failure is likely to occur within the slope between the potential shear failure surface and the ground surface.

Numerical Calculations for dimensionless pressure drop (friction factor times Reynolds number) have been obtained for fully developed laminar flow of MPL(Modified Power Law) fluid in isosceles triangle pipes. The solutions are valid for Pseudoplastic fluids over a wide range from Newtonian behavior at low shear rates through transition region to power law behavior at higher shear rates. The analysis identified a dimensionless shear rate parameter which for a given set of operating conditions specifies where in the shear rate range a particular system is operating, i.e., Newtonian, transition or power law region. The numerical calculation data of the dimensionless pressure drop for the Newtonian and power law regions are compared with previously published asymptotic results presenting within 0.16 % in Newtonian region and 2.98 % in power law region.

Configuration of filling imbalance which is originated from imbalanced share rate of melt on runner is changed by runner layout, runner shape, material property, injection pressure, injection speed, melt temperature and mold temperature. In this paper, we conducted a study of runner layout and shape that are main factors of filling imbalance. Other factors such as the sharp corner effect and the groove corner effect are recently released were also considered. The results of study are showed that filling rate of between inside and outside cavity was influenced on shape of runner. Especially, this study suggests a new runner system for filling balance by adapting the two effects of unary branch type runner at multi cavity mold and theoretical investigated flow in the sharp corner type runner.

Despite geometrical balanced runner system, filling imbalances between cavity to cavity have always been observed in multi-cavity injection mold. These filling imbalances are results from non-symmetrical shear rate distribution within melt as it flows through the runner system. It has been possible to decrease filling imbalance by optimizing processing conditions, but it has not completely eliminated this phenomenon during the injection molding processing. This paper presents a solution of these filling imbalances by using runner core pin which creates a symmetrical shear distribution within runner and the effects on filling imbalance when modifying a shape of runner core pin. As a result of using runner core pin, a remarkable improvement in reducing filling imbalance was confirmed. In addition we investigated how filling imbalances were affected by shape of runner core pin.

최근의 자동차엔진에서 사용되는 윤활유에는 여러 가지 첨가물이 사용된다. 특히 고분자량 폴리머계의 점도 지수 향상제를 윤활유의 원유에 첨가함으로써 온도 증가에 따른 점도 불안정성을 방지하는 다등급 윤활유 성격을 얻을 수 있다. 그러나 이러한 고분자량 폴리머계의 첨가물은 고온의 엔진 운전 조건에서 윤활유의 점도 안정성을 보장해줌에도 불구하고 엔진 부품들의 정상적인 운동 속도에서도($1-^6 S^{-1}$) 고 전단 변형율 속도로 인하여 유막 감소 효과를 발생 시킨다. 또한 이 첨가제들은 엔진 부품의 마찰 표면에 큰 전단 응력을 지닌 끈끈한 형태의 경계막을 형성한다. 고분자량 폴리머계의 점도 지수 향상제에 대한 예기치 못한 영향은 유막 감소 효과로 인하여 엔진 부품간의 마모를 증가 시키고 점도의 감소로 마찰을 감소 시키는 반면 경계막으로 인하여 고체면이 보호를 받는데 있다. 이러한 유막 형성의 물리적인 개념에 대하여 고체면의 끈끈한 경계막의 존재 효과와 두 경계막 사이에서 일어나는 유막 감소 효과를 표현할 수 있는 현실적인 해석의 필요성이 제기된다. 본 연구는 최근에 많이 쓰이고 있는 점도 향상제가 첨가된 윤활유가 자동차 밸브 트레인 시스템에서 유막 형성에 미치는 영향을 마찰 효율과 마모 방지의 입장에서 고찰하였다.

Selecting appropriate G values in flocculator operation is important to produce high quality filter effluent in water treatment plants. However, misunderstanding and misleading of G calculation for the case of having power sources more than one or many paddles with one power source in a flocculation basin sometimes have led to low performance in flocculation. Theoretical analysis confirmed that the total G value in one flocculation unit having power sources more than one or with many paddles is the root-square of the sum of square of individual G value. This analysis also can give a simple calculation method of G value for designers and operators in fields.

The drag reduction is the phenomenon that occurs only when the shear stress from the wall of pipe is beyond the critical point. The drag reduction increase as the molecular weight, concentration of the polymer and Reynolds number increase, but it is limited by Virk's maximum drag reduction asymptote. Because of the strong shear force for the polymer on the turbulent flow, the molecular weight and the drag reduction do not decrease. Such mechanical degradation of the polymer occurs in all polymer solvent systems. This paper is to identify and develop high performance polymer additives for fluid transportations with the benefits of turbulent drag reduction. In addition, drag reduction in vertical flow by measuring the pressure drop and local void fraction on vertical-up flow of close system is evaluated.

동하중을 받는 엔진 베어링을 연구하기 위하여 1.5리터, 직렬 4 기통 가솔린 엔진 5개 메인 베어링 모두의 최소 유막 두께를 측정하고, 이론 계산을 수행하였다. 이론 계산은 무한 소폭으로 본 엔진 베어링에 대해 모빌리티 방법을 이용하였으며 유막두께 측정 방법으로는 TOTAL CAPACITANCE METHOD(TCM)을 사용하였다. TCM을 이용한 실험에서 실험의 정도를 높이기 위하여 새로운 베어링 틈새 설정 방법을 제시하였으며, 베어링 캐비테이션(Cavitation) 및 윤활유의 공기 혼입(Aeration)에 의한 시험오차를 해석하였다. 시험과 이론 계산의 결과를 비교한 결과, 정성적인 경향이 비교적 잘 일치하고 있음을 볼 수 있었다. 그러나 정정보로 가정된 이론 계산은 크랭크샤프트 진동 및 각 베어링이 받는 하중의 불균형으로 인한 영향을 예측하지 못함을 알 수 있었다. 엔진 운전중 베어링의 최대 전단율(Maximum Shear Rate)은 $10^7 S^{-1}$ 수준임을 확인하였다.

The furnace brazing in a Ar of copper to martensitic stainless steel(13.5Cr) using Cu-(5~8%)P-(0~8%)Sn powders was investigated. Shear strength, wettability, reacted layer, defect ratio at the stainless steel interface was evaluated. As Sn was added to the Cu-P powders, defect ratio and P content at the stainless steel interface decreased. And also as Sn was added, defect form at the stainless steel interface changed from the continuous layer to the discrete type, and shear strength of the brazed joint increased.
